External Review by WineExpress.com:

As unlikely a match as you'll ever find, and with a Pulp Fiction throwback label, this is not your father's Australian Shiraz. Misfits Wine Company doesn't fit the mold but what they do fit is a perfect niche of off-beat deliciousness. Finding lots of top quality grapes and hand-crafting them with slow fermentations, barrel aging and unfiltered bottling into lush, flavor-filled wines at tremendous value is where they excel. This ripe red is a blend of 60% Shiraz and 40% Malbec that shows exotic floral notes along with black plums, blackberries and spices with a long, lush finish.

Some Young Punks:
Some Young Punks is a wine produced in Australia, known for its retro pulp pin-up labels and cheeky names (such as Quickie, Naked on Roller Skates, The Squid’s Fist, etc.). Col McBryde, Jen Gardner and Nic Bourke are the winemakers behind the project. Aside from the attention-getting packaging, the wines are known for their good quality and affordable pricing and have attracted many devotees.
